My Healing Journey - Deep Plane Facelift Recovery Timeline Explained

For this patient’s breakdown video, we really want to focus on facelift recovery and show what the process looks like step by step. When she first came in, she had natural aging changes caused by gravity pulling the skin downward, loss of facial volume, and surface texture changes. To address these concerns, we performed a full facial rejuvenation. This included a neck lift, a deep plane facelift, a temple lift, upper eyelid surgery, scarless lower eyelid surgery, fat transfer throughout her face, and laser resurfacing around her eyes and mouth. This combination creates a balanced and natural result. If you look at her facelift before and after photos at the four-month mark, you can see how beautifully she is healing. She is also a great example of how a typical facelift recovery unfolds. With a preservation deep plane facelift, the technique is gentle on the skin. There are no drains and very little bruising. On the first day, there is some swelling but it is not extreme. Because the procedure is less traumatic, patients usually look better sooner. After surgery, she had an ELIXIR MD treatment to open the lymphatic system and help fluid move out quickly. This made a noticeable difference in her facelift recovery. By day four, after just one treatment, she was already looking better. Swelling was coming down, and the redness from the laser was improving. We intentionally go deep enough with the laser to smooth wrinkles and create lasting skin improvement. At one week, the stitches were removed. Her skin looked healthier, swelling continued to go down, redness was fading, and bruising was minimal. She was well on her way to a smooth deep plane facelift recovery. At two weeks, patients can usually start wearing makeup again. This is the point where most people feel comfortable returning to daily life, going back to work, and seeing friends without worrying about looking swollen. At one month, the deep plane facelift before and after changes become very clear. She looked much more presentable, although some swelling remained under the chin, around the eyes, and near the jowls. This is completely normal and part of the natural healing process. She was progressing exactly as expected. By two months, swelling around her eyes had dropped significantly. The jowls were starting to tighten, and her overall facial contour was taking shape. At this stage of facelift recovery, many patients feel confident enough to attend events, weddings, or dinners. They can take casual photos with friends and feel good about how they look. At the four-month mark, the facelift before and after transformation becomes striking. This is the time when swelling has gone down enough for us to take high-definition photos in the office and see the true refinement of the results. This is why we focus on a preservation approach. Our non-delamination deep plane facelift results in very little bruising and a smoother recovery. There is still some swelling because it is a true deep plane facelift, but our techniques and recovery support minimize downtime and help patients return to normal life faster. Her journey shows what a thoughtful facelift recovery looks like and why this technique creates such natural, beautiful, and long-lasting results. #DeepPlaneFacelift #FaceliftRecovery #FaceliftBeforeAndAfter #DeepPlaneFaceliftRecovery #FaceliftExperience ----- BALIKIAN FACIAL PLASTIC SURGERY https://DrBalikianSanDiego.com TEMECULA VALLEY https://www.drbalikian.com/contact-fa... 951-719-2950 25220 Hancock Ave STE 115, Murrieta, CA 92562 SAN DIEGO https://www.drbalikiansandiego.com/co... 858-230-8938 1431 Camino Del Mar, Del Mar, CA 92014 ----- LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ARTISTE LIFT™ PRESERVATION DEEP PLANE FACELIFT https://www.drbalikiansandiego.com/fa...
